Korean Podcast with Naeun

다시 만날 인연 | Korean Podcast for Intermediate

Dear listeners, students, and friends. I am glad to introduce you to the second episode of my Lithuanian podcast for non-native speakers. 

In today's episode, you will learn more about one of my favorite Lithuanian celebrations - Užgavėnės. In 2024, Užgavėnės is going to be celebrated on the 13th of February, so I encourage you to learn a bit more about it's traditions, meaning and significance.

I suggest turning on the subtitles for a more comfortable listening experience. Install Language Reactor to translate the Lithuanian titles into your native language.

Also, if you wish to receive the full transcript of this episode, please head to my Contribee. There you will find all the podcast's transcripts, longer format Lithuanian with Paulius recordings and more.

In the vocabulary of 'Minna no Nihongo' Chapter 1, there are the words ”きょうし”  and ”せんせい” . Do you understand the difference? Both translate to 'teacher,' but ”きょうし” generally refers to school teachers, with a few exceptions. For example, it does not refer to those who teach at cram schools . On the other hand, ”せんせい” has a broader meaning. At this point in Lesson 1, you might not need to worry too much about it, but I will explain.

Of course, school teachers are included, but also instructors at cram schools, doctors, politicians, and sports instructors can all be called '先生.' In Lesson 17 on page 145, there is a conversation between a doctor and Matsumoto-san, and if Matsumoto-san were to refer to this doctor, they would normally call them “せんせい” not ”いしゃ” , which means ”doctor.”

This might change the subject a bit, but regarding my 'Minna no Nihongo course,' I have created a substantial amount of homework with audio. Just taking lessons alone won't significantly improve your skills. I believe this homework will be quite effective. Of course, it is not mandatory; whether to do it or not depends on the students. 
For those who want to start Japanese lessons but aren’t sure where to begin, please give it a try.

Alright. So everyone, please do your best with Japanese. See you again!

みんなの日本語Chapter OneⅡきょうし vs　せんせい


Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんPodcastのゆかりです。
私はいま、シンガポールにいます。

シンガポールははじめてです。

いろいろなことに、おどろいています。

例えば、駅(えき)のポスターに
こう書いてありました。

"食べること、飲むことは禁止(きんし)。"

禁止とは、してはいけないことです。

シンガポールでは、電車やバスで、

食べること、飲むこと、は禁止です。

罰金(ばっきん)があります。

罰金とは、お金をはらうことです。

電車やバスでお水を飲むと‥

シンガポールドルで500ドル、はらわなくてはいけません。

日本円だと、50,000円(ごまんえん)です。

アメリカドルだと、＄360です。

びっくりですね。気をつけます！


みなさんの国(くに)では、どうでしょうか？

日本では、ふつうの電車やバスで、
食べることは、あんまり良くないです。

飲むことは、大丈夫(だいじょうぶ)です。

あ、新幹線(しんかんせん)は食べること、飲むこと、どちらも大丈夫です。

でも、普通のバスや電車はあんまり良くないです。

禁止ではありませんが、
マナーとして、あまりしません。

シンガポールでは禁止なので、
みんなにわかりやすいですね。

あいまいなルールよりも、
いいなぁと思います。

では今日も最後まで、聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。
また明日！

Espero no enrollarme como una persiana y ya que siempre me gusta hablar sin tapujos y sin pelos en la lengua voy a ir al grano en este audio-artículo. En realidad, me la trae al pedo si lo leen cuatro gatos o al contrario, si se pone hasta los botes de comentarios, pero este tema es tan importante como útil.

Lack of recognition occurs when an individual’s contributions, achievements, or hard work go unacknowledged or unrewarded. This oversight can significantly impact employee motivation, engagement, and job satisfaction. When employees feel undervalued, they may experience decreased morale, reduced productivity, and increased turnover. Recognition is a fundamental human need, and its absence can create a negative work environment. Organizations that fail to recognize their employees' efforts risk damaging their employer brand and hindering their ability to attract and retain top talent. Effective recognition programs are essential for fostering a positive and productive workplace culture.

Examples:

Overlooking achievements: Failing to acknowledge employee accomplishments.

Inequitable rewards: Distributing rewards unfairly or inconsistently.

Lack of public acknowledgment: Not recognizing employees in front of peers.

Ignoring employee feedback: Disregarding employee suggestions or ideas.

Insufficient appreciation: Failing to express gratitude for employees' contributions.

Employees feeling undervalued should take proactive steps. This might involve documenting accomplishments, seeking feedback on performance, and initiating conversations with supervisors about career goals and recognition expectations. It's essential to maintain a professional and constructive approach, focusing on the impact of their work rather than personal feelings.  Ultimately, advocating for oneself is crucial in a work environment where recognition might be lacking.

Addressing lack of recognition requires a multifaceted approach. Organizations should implement formal recognition programs, provide opportunities for peer-to-peer recognition, and create a culture where appreciation is valued. By investing in employee recognition, organizations can reap the benefits of increased job satisfaction, improved employee engagement, and enhanced organizational performance.
